DDB had it's Capturing Kids Hearts: Leadworthy Assembly for the character trait Teamwork! Teamwork is the ability to work in unity with others towards a common goal. For us to learn how to become team players, it is important that we learn to listen, encourage our peers, and allow and invite others to contribute their talents and skills. Teamwork improves communication, builds interpersonal awareness, and celebrates diversity.

🌟 Creative Fun with Mrs. Winters' DDB Barbie Club! 🌟
Check out the amazing creativity of the AMAZING DDB Barbie Club! This week, the group turned simple popsicle sticks, Jenga blocks and Scrabble pieces into fabulous doll furniture masterpieces and made signs. ✂️✨ From chairs and tables to shelves and more, the kids worked together to bring their imaginative designs to life.
We love seeing these young designers hone their crafting skills while having fun and learning teamwork! 🎨💡 Stay tuned for upcoming projects and events from the DDB Barbie Club. Who knows what they’ll create next? 💕

DDB 3rd grade had a great time at the Science Vortex!
#FalconsFinest #ScienceVortex
DDB held its next Capturing Kids Hearts: Leadworthy Assembly for the character trait self-direct. CKH defines self-direct as the ability and learned skill to cast a vision of future goals and then take intentional steps toward who, where, and what we want to be. Instead of focusing on things to control or avoid, we emphasize our responsibility to make positive choices related to our emotions, attitudes, and actions.
Then we had an exciting Student VS. Staff game, where teams had to carry a ball without using their hands down the gym.
